look at the earnest, pleasant-looking
face of George V., or at his animated,
happy, blue-eyed Queen, it is a sym-
bol we are seeing, not the actual in-
dividuals.
These two young people, our King
and Queen, realize the need of democ-
racy for a sheet anchor, and although
also realizing the heavy burden of
Sovereignty did not flinch from dedi-
cating their lives to the use of the
common people. They were kept up
and actuated by motives of patriot-
ism, but probably: the idea of dying
for Britain was not uppermost in their
thoughts, although even this contin-
gency would find them ready and un-
afraid. | Living for Britain and her
millions is that to which they dedi-
cated their lives as long as God spares
them.
Three years ago I heard a_ well-
versed woman urging a group of club
women to insist that patriotism
should not be taught in our Canadian
schools; she developed this theme, try-
ing to prove that the glorification of
past wars in the history books used
in our schools laid the basis for fut-
ure wars. I took issue with her,
claiming that real patriotism could
not be taught. The hysterical feel-
ings engendered by the war-mongers
at a time of conflict, and when they
need cannon-fodder, is not on a par
with the patriotism that lives for its
country primarily, but, if needs be,
will die for it. To let our children
see the King and Queen is to make
them partners in a big secret, the se-
cret of the simplicity of the British
Commonwealth of Nations; a happy
family, all linked together with bonds,
not too tightly held, by the Mother-
land. Symbol of this, simplicity is
an ordinarily happy Mother and Fa-
ther, with their two bonny little girls.
For a Queen you won't see an exotic
fashion plate, nor a gloomy dowager
with a gleaming crown; just a happy
woman of thirty-eight who has al-
ways done her duty as she saw right,
an example to the womanhood of the
world., In the King we shall not see
a glamorous Prince from Fairyland
(or the Balkan States), nor a haughty
|unapproachable aristocrat. We shall
|see a steadfast young Briton, sensible
to his overwhelming responsibilities,
‘not good-lookng if seen with the eyes
of a beauty expert, but with firm jaw,
clear eyes and a kindly expression, in- |
rather silly and far-fetched. When we tion the benefits and the responsibil-
ities of being a member of one of the
few remaining great democracies?
The display and the ovations are mere
outward and spontaneous manifesta-
,tions of the spirit of neighborliness
that lies within us all; we would all
like to do something for someone else;
only by collectively so doing can we
make our country one worthy of the
spirit of its citizens.
Believe me, patriotism is a fine
thing; it enables the ‘“‘exiled’’ British
Commissioner tc live in a snake-in-
fested or wild-animal-inhabited re-
gion, with blacks as his sole compan-
ions, and dispense British justice, and
keep the British flag flying, because
he is imbued with that sometimes
doubted virtue—patriotism, i.e., love
of his country, belief in her and all
she stands for. If one of these serv-
‘ants of the Crown die for their coun-
try it is not a very spectacular affair,
probably a snake bite, the agony of
fever, or a knife or spear in the back.
There are many unsung heroes
That a King of a democratic coun-
try is not a despot, we all know. The
Prime Minister.of England is by com-
parison, a dictator, in that he has the
power; but, if the King were a mere
figurehead, the country would very
quickly deteriorate. Everything has
to be discussed with the King, and his
suggestions must be listened to with
respect. George V. often altered the
course of events by his sage counsel;
his son, extraordinarily like him in
both character and face, will give a
good account of himself in the halls
of the mighty.
So, let us see to it that our children
do see our King and Queen—let us be
jealous of our rights in this respect.
It has been stated that application
has been received from one _ town
alone in Montana for 75 carloads of
people to come and see our Monarchs
in Calgary. As Their Majesties’ stay
in that city is to be of only two hours
duration, I contend we should not al-
low any large groups to cross the
border—not because I have anything
against the Americans, but the King
and Queen are our own property—our
own symbol of the unity of the Brit-
ish Empire, and something concrete
we can show our children as embody-
ing the simple idea of a large family
with one accepted head. Let us fos-
ter this patriotism of our children—a
‘virtue that is inbred, and not taught
from histovy books.
1939 Forp V-8 Tupor
There are things to talk over when a new Ford V-8 moves into
the neighbourhood. There’s always the Ford V-8 engine. It’s still
the biggest engine value in a low-price car. There is talk about
how good-looking the new Ford is. And motorists are saying you
know you're riding in a fine car, too, with that extra seat' comfort
and plenty of room for the family to spread out and relax.
Another important item is the new, powerful Aydraulic brakes.
Your Ford dealer invites you to take the wheel and get acquainted
with these features and more.

MANY BENEFIT FROM
TOURIST BUSINESS
The popularity of Canada among
tourists is shown by the fact that 17
million visitors came to the Dominion
during 1938, according to C. K. How-
ard, Manager, Tourist and Conven-
tion Bureau, Canadian National Rail-
ways. It is estimated that these vis-
itors spent approximately $269,000,.
000 in Canada for goods and services.
During last year sportsmen paid
$600,000 for licenses in Canada and
spent about $25,000,000 for supplies
and services. Last year conventions
held in the principal centres across
Canada numbered 981, producing an
estimated revenue of $24,000,000 to
the cities concerned, representing a
fair increase over the previous year.

“T am not Miss Brown,” Elizabeth

“Miss Brown is suffering from am-

in. “Don’t listen’ to her, Dudley.

“Miss Dudley,” Elizabeth interrupt-

finished, she shivered a little.
“Something very horrible seems to
be going on-—”
“Yes,” Nurse Hilton broke in quick-
ly, “but Dr. Payne hasn’t been quite
fair about me. There is so much evi-
dence that Miss Brown either came
here deliberately under the alias of
Allen or that she is suffering from
amnesia, that I don’t see how you
can blame me for believing Professor
Meres, or at least having a_ few
doubts as to her identity.”
“All the evidence could have been
manufactured,” Miss Dudley remark-
ed, to Elizabeth’s surprise and relief.
“Yes,” said Stephen. “I was pres-
ent when her luggage went through
the Customs and I'can swear that the
bags were initialed ‘E.A.’. The ‘B’
has been added recently. If you look
closely, you can see.”
He pointed to the suitcase which
Elizabeth had left out in the room. ~
Nurse Hilton bent over to look at it.
Finally, she straightened up and
nodded.
“I believe you”. She turned to
Elizabeth. “I’m sorry, Miss Allen,”
she said simply. “Please don’t hold
it against me that I doubted you for
she exclaimed. “What a strange co- @ While.”
“I suppose I shouldn’t blame you,”
Elizabeth murmured.
“Humph!” said Miss Dudley, rising.
‘Well, I must be off. More reason
than ever now. What do you want
me to do, Dr. Payne? Send Dr.
Richards out?”
“Yes.” Stephen nodded. “And
come back with him if you can.”
_“Tll be back,” Miss Dudley prom-
ised grimly. “Don’t worry!”
As she and Nurse Hilton started
toward the door, Stephen turned to
Elizabeth. ;
“Listen, sweet.” he said, “I’m going
down with them, but I'll be back im-
mediately.”
When they were gone, Elizabeth’
restlessly wandered about the room,
busying herself with odd jobs in an
effort to keep from thinking. Once,
looking in the mirror, she was sur-
prised to see how white and drawn
her face was, how abnormally large
her eyes seemed. She looked as
though she had been quite ill. That
drug last night must have been very
strong..,
Finally, she looked at her watch.
More than an hour had passed since
Stephen had said he would be right
back. Her heart jumped. Had some-
——
| thing gone wrong?
She went to the door and tried the
knob. Somewhat to her surprise, she
found the door unlocked. Had Nurse,
that way on purpose? Elizabeth
shrugged and went out.
The house was as quiet as a tomb.
Downstairs, she- found no one in the
living room or the study or the din-
ing room, although the table was set
for lunch. Heszitantly, she went to
the laboratory, and found that empty
too. . ‘
Trying to quiet a growing feeling
of uneasiness, she started down the
corridor that led to Stephen’s office
She found his door locked, and there
was no answer to her repeated knock.
Seriously worried now, she turned
the corner in the L and continued to-
wards Michael’s room. She was two
doors away from his when she stop-
ped suddenly and stiffened.

THE CONTAGIOUSNESS OF
INFANTILE PARALYSIS
| A correspondent asks what is the
period of contagion in infantile paral-+
ysis or how soon it wuuld be safe for
)@ youngster of six to be permitted to
icome in contact with other children
after an attack of polio. He also
asks if schools should be closed in the
face of an epidemic.
Although winter is not the season
for infantile paralysis the question is
timely for it is always well to be fore-
armed. —
The period of contagion of epidemic
infantile paralysis, otherwise known
as anterior poliomyelitis or “polio” is
not definitely known. The Journal of
the American Medical Association
says that there is considerable evi-
dence that this disease is not contag-
ious after paralysis has appeared.
This view seeme to be confirmed by
the fact that it is rare among the
personnel of hospital staffs (nurses
and attendants) and by its rarity as
secondary cases in families. But there
was a@ severe epidemic in a Los An-
geles hospital in 1934 and secondary
cases do occur in families so one can-
not always be sure that similar out-
breaks will not recur.
The contagion is generally believed
to be spread by means of the nose
and throat secretions but the virus of
the disease has been found in the in-
testinal tract of convalescents from
polio.
Health departments usually insist
on an isolation period for patients of
three weeks following the onset of the
disease. This is a safe rule to fol-
low. The effectiveness of closing
schools and preventing the congrega-

RETAIN A YOUTHFUL
APPEARANCE
I wrote last week on how to take
years off our looks, suggesting var-
ious factors to look for. Here are a
few more pointers to watch, because
nothing is quite so important to wo-
men as a youthful appearance.
Neck and Chin.—A double chin
adds years and years to our age! Of-
ten it is caused by slumping, so keep
your shoulders down, head high and
chin in. Try vigorous slapping with
the back of your hand or a pad of
cotton-wool soaked in astringent.
Necks are frequently neglected, yet
they so quickly age us. When cream-
ing your face, always extend the
treatment to your neck. Use a bleach
occasionally.
You can make this one yourself by
pouring a tablespoonful of milk of
magnesia into a saucer and stirring
in a teaspoonful of lemon juice. Ap-
leave on for 30 minutes, then wash off
with tepid water. Finally rinse with
eold water.
Hands.—To keep hands smooth.and
white, apply Italian Balm often ana
rub it well in.. Tne hands are in wa-
ter more than any other part of the
body, yet have fewer oil glands, so
you must lubricate them more. Wash

by Wal. ler Dales
“The world is so full of a number of
things, I am sure we should all be as
happy as Kings!’”’ And when that line
was written, there wasn’t any such
thing as a radio! Back in those days
there wasn’t even an automobile! If
the poet. were living today, he’d prob-
ably have written, “The world is so
crammed full of an infinity of things
-|that I’m sure we should all be as
happy as a Dictator without a De-
mocracy on his horizin’!”” Let’s just
see what radio has added to the list
of good things you and I can enjoy
this coming week!
On Friday, March 24, for instance,
instead of hitting out to the Com-
munity Dance in the evening after a
hard day’s work, we can start the day
off with the sport of kings—right in
our own home. At 8.00 a.m. we can
tune in CJCA, and hear the running
of the annual Grand National turf |

Cottage, or pot cheese, is prob-
ably the earliest known type of
cheese and was discovered before
man lived in a house or had cook-
ing utensils. While it may be made
of sweet or sour milk, most of the
cottage cheese marketed today is
made from sweet milk with the curd
solidified by means of rennin. Cot-
tage cheese combines well with
fruit, stewed or canned, and is par-
ticularly good with berries, Russian
pancakes with cottage cheese filling
are a favorite dish with many

The Legion
Notice Board
The Canadian Legion and all other
ex-service men’s associations in
Canada have joined in the registra-
tion of all ex-service men and wo-
men throughout Canada who are
willing to serve in Canada in case
of a national emergency which, we
hope and pray, may not arise.
Our Dominion H.Q. writes as follows:
“The object of the survey is to have
available the necessary information
with respect to those of us who are
able and willing to serve. The sur-
vey is designed to ensure, by mak-
ing its results available to them,
that constituted authorities will
. know that this great voluntary
body of ex-service men and women
is ready to assist them in safe-
guarding internal security should it
be threatened by international ten-
sion.
“Though most of us are’ now too old
for active service in the field we
possess unique qualifications based
on our experiences, which fit us ad-
mirably to perform essential duties
in Canada.
“This task is in full accord with our
conceptidn of the unity of our Do-
minion as we knew it twenty years
ago, a unity we have attempted to
enhance ever since.
“This free offer, freely given, will
will prove to us once more, and we
need the ré-assurance, that our
democratic nation can inspire un-
selfish service without any vestige
of compulsion.”
‘}Our comrade and president has the
necessary enrollment forms and the
rest is up to us as individuals.
